User Reviews

Overall: This game is ok but not as good as i thought it would be and no were near as good as it was hyped up to be.
For starters it is not that hard to complete it took me about 12 hours which is not that long in my opinion,you can play co-op which gives it some replay value but with only 5 levels it wont take long to complete a few times.
The story is ok and this is the first part of a trilogy so hopefully the next 2 will be better.
There are five type's of person to choose from all rounder to berserker and so on and there are plenty of weapons and armour to customise your character.
If you want to collect all of the acheivments you are going to have to go throught it 4 or 5 times to get them all.
In all the game is good but could have been so much better. Gameplay: Well the gameplay is ok you use the right stick to control all of your melee moves and compo's and the left and right triggers to use your guns which works ok.
The worsed thing about this game is the camera angle's which can get very annoying and it can get very repetative after a while.
The a.i is not that great but if u like a hack 'n' slash game then u will quite like it.
The rpg element is ok but nothing new to write about Graphics: The visual's are quite impressive at time's but not groundbreaking the levels are ok but they are roughly all the same type of thing, the cut scenes are quite good the larger enemy's like really good the gaint dog on the hel levels looks good.
Overall i would give the visuals 78%.
